"Where is everyone else, Graysten?" I asked. We'd been standing at the central fountain for at least half an hour.

The captain of the elite guard chuckled. "I imagine some of my men convinced some of your men to do some shopping for themselves as well."

I turned back to him. "Wardens like Earth luxuries?"

One of the female Wardens who'd accompanied us laughed, the sound bright and happy. "Undoubtedly. Some of the fabrics and materials they use on Earth are not available in Faery. And we might be war hardened warriors, but we still like to feel like gods and goddesses."

"Was there any shopping you wanted to do, Juniper?" I asked the tall Warden.

She shook her head. "No. I was able to stock up on my last trip to Earth."

I turned to the shorter Warden. I almost snorted. Short. She was still taller than me by at least a handful of inches. "Dahlia?"

The quiet Warden shook her head, her gaze still focused outward, looking for bad guys or someone who didn't belong. She was the

    Gaia's balls! I looked around some more, sure my mouth was hanging open as some new visually stunning piece of Faery was revealed to me. We trudged across a rolling meadow. Not unlike the Spirit Realm, Faery's coloring reminded me of a verdant forest. Up ahead was a monumentally huge crystal palace. It sparkled in the bright light from some source I couldn't see. A vast forest separated us from her walls though.Flashing lights on the ground drew my eyes to the path we walked. Each time one of the Warden's feet touched the earth, a light appeared under his or her foot. The same was not true for any of my family. I looked down at my own feet. Nope. No special lights announcing my presence. Juniper chuckled as she walked beside me. "Faery recognizes us and welcomes us home. She will cease her light show shortly.""Your world is sentient?" I asked as I brought my head back up to take in more of my surroundings. "Yes. As are all worlds." She pushed a branch out of my way as we be

    One Week Later"This is the last thing Arasne asked of us. We're going to the party. I know you brought clothes for it," I said as Kiema huddled under the mountain of blankets in our room at the castle. After leaving the Queen's forest house, she'd moved her home and staff to the castle while we were trying to find the people who hired Alok and his gang of idiotic killers. "And I said I don't want to go. I'm pretty sure I'm getting my period."My heart clenched before settling back into its regular rhythm. I hadn't known I'd been wanting Kiema to get pregnant, but now with the surety of her not carrying a child this month, the knowledge sliced me in two. "Did you not bring tampons or anything?" I asked. She groaned. "Of course, I did. I just don't want to put on a slinky dress, high heels, and do my hair up. I want to veg in your bed at home, watch a movie, and eat chocolate like a normal girl.""Well, once we're done with the party, we can leave. You'll be home and in m

    No way were we stopping before we all came. Reaching for my magic, I pushed small seeking fingers out into all of my men. Immediately, a surge of lust and love swamped through our group. Kord began pounding inside me like a battering ram. I tried to inhale Saint's cock.Ransom was a devil with his tongue against my clit. And out of the edge of my vision, I saw Saint's rhythm pick up around Ransom's cock.Saint groaned as I let him feel the sharp edge of my teeth. "Hon-honey, teeth."I smiled, pushed another wave of lust over all of us. My body felt like I'd been hit with a bolt of electrical lust. From clit to tit, my body tightened and shook as I raced to orgasm. "Oh fuck. Do that again," Kord demanded from behind me. After a brief moment, his hand slapped against my already sensitized ass cheek. I lost the plot as I pushed my magic out at the exact same moment the orgasm rushed over me. All three of my men groaned, long and loud, as Saint shot his load d

    "I would posit a guess," Ten said from Saint/Ten's shared mouth. All attention turned to my brother. He turned to Edmond. "You said that the laughing magic held the same icy undertones of the fertility rites on Old Earth."Edmond nodded."Asta carries Fertility as a lesser power. I would submit that she is the person behind this attack," Ten said as he looked at Arasne and Kiema. "It could also explain what we found in terms of the investigation." Kiema narrowed her eyes at us. "And what did you find?" She crossed her arms under her breasts, plumping them up high enough that I thought her nipples would pop out. "We can discuss that after the party," Arasne said. "We've gathered to celebrate. We will celebrate." Her voice carried a hint of steel. Right. Because forced revelry was so very fun. "Then that's what we'll do," Kiema said, glaring at all of us. Arasne clapped her hands together. "Wonderful. Let's get the music up and going again."Asher snorted a lit

    "Don't touch him, Kiema," I shouted as I pushed through a startled couple. Kiema stopped her hand, inches before they touched Ransom's tuxedo jacketed arm. "What's wrong with him, Taryk?""I don't know, sweetheart, but we'll figure it out." I turned to see his dance partner flitting and darting away in the crowd. "Stop that woman!" I pointed in her direction. Immediately a contingent of Wardens barred all the doors. Graysten pushed up to stand beside me. "What's going on? Why isn't he breathing?"Atlas finally made it to us from the far side of the ballroom where he and Lukas had been getting something to drink. He slid to the floor next to our brother, pushed his head to Ransom's chest. "Lukas. Can you see if it's magic?" I asked the red-headed man. Lukas dipped down, not even bothering to answer. He placed his hand on Ransom's. Nothing happened."Here she is, Taryk," Dahlia said as she pushed the slight woman forward. "Her name is Aryn. She's a friend of Javie

    "Taryk says we need a fire elemental to save him, sweets," I told Kiema through Junior's mouth on the Gateway. She nodded, huddled around the limp form of Ransom. "Why are we on the Gateway and not his spirit landscape?" I asked. "I guess because he couldn't get there before he passed out? I don't know, Xander. Help me get him up though, yeah?" She tugged at the big man's shoulders. I tried to help as much as possible in my tiger form, but Junior didn't have hands. "Do you know where any elementals are?" I asked as we finally managed to get him draped over my - Junior's - back. She shook her head, wiped a hand under her eyes. "No. But I have an idea. You take him back with you, okay?" She pushed me back towards our physical bodies. "Where the fuck do you think you're going?" I growled. "You said that that bitch confessed that she was set up by Asta, yes?" she asked. I nodded. "Yeah. But that doesn't mean you get to just run off by yourself."She smiled at m

    As soon as I felt Xander leave the Gateway, I zipped as quickly as possible to the door of the Spirit Realm. I needed to get this thing done before he came back and found me missing. Letting instinct guide me, its heavy wood façade came into view much faster than I thought possible.Repeating the words I remembered Anda speaking, I laid my lips to its surface. The door seemed to sigh as it opened before me. Taking a deep breath, I pushed through into the one place Anda had warned me away from.The bright and sparkling gold and silver I'd witnessed before were dimmed today. Or maybe it was the rage and hate that grew in my soul clouding my vision. Either way, I wasn't too concerned with the sparkle of the Spirit Realm. "MINNI!" I shouted as soon as the door closed behind me. "I DEMAND AN AUDIENCE!" The whole place seemed to shudder and quake as the last syllable died from my lips. He better pay up on his sacred vow or heads were going to fucking roll.Soon, a host of gods a

    I pushed back the power that writhed and seethed to obliterate my mother. Taking a couple deep breaths to calm the raging storm inside me, I counted to ten to get myself - and my newly acquired power - under control."Don't just stand there, Kiema. We have much to do," Heppni said as she threaded her arm through my own. She tried to pull me from Nix's grasp.Nix kept her arm steady.I felt like the rope in a game of tug of war. "What are you doing here, Herpes?" I asked her. My mother's beautiful face pinched and twisted at the nickname. "Stop calling me that."Nix muffled a laugh on my other side. "My question still stands," I said. I tried to pull my arm free of Herpes'. She wrapped her fist around my arm, anchoring me to her side. "Because you've finally done something worthy of my attention.""How did you even know I was in the Spirit Realm?" I asked. Narrowing my gaze at her, I watched a number of different expressions mar her features before she settled on p

    Three months later"And I'm telling you right now, dad, that if you want to ever see these babies, you'll stop sending my mates to the Underworld for a ‘cooling off' period. That shit is getting old," I said as I waddled into the hospital built for gods and demi-gods. He chuckled beside me. "But, bubbles, they deserved it. Crowing like they built Olympus bare handed. They were getting on your Circle's nerves. I could tell." He said as he lifted me into the bed. "Bring them back, dad. Now." I glared at him. Even though, on the inside, I was smiling like a loon. This was the type of relationship I'd always dreamed of having with a father. He sighed, a smirk still pulling at his mouth. With a snap, my three mates stumbled into the room."Damn it, Apollo," Saint said as he flicked his shirt. "Cerberus almost got me that time."My dad's head tipped back as he laughed and laughed. The babies inside me loved that sound. They kicked at my belly. I rubbed at the spot. "Easy

    Six months later"Last time, I'll ask. I swear." Kiema swallowed heavily as she moved around behind me. "You promise you're okay not getting your deer back?" Kiema asked me as flicked the fabric of my dress this way and that to get it to lay perfectly.I waited until she looked up at me. That look of slight hesitation on her face tugged at my heart. "I promise. I was never meant to be a deer. A shifter of any kind."She nodded, sniffled quietly. "You ready for the rest of this then?" Kiema asked me as she adjusted the crown of flowers in my hair. "So much more than ready. I've been waiting for this my entire life." I bit back the tears that wanted to flood my throat. Not today. I wouldn't ruin this day with tears.She smiled as she stepped back. "You look beautiful, little sister." Tears gathered in her eyes. I held up a hand, looked at the ceiling. "Don't do that. I told you I wasn't crying today. You start crying, then I'll start crying. Then we'll have to postpone e

    The next night"Wake up, Saint," I said softly in our shared consciousness. I could barely contain myself. I had felt the swell of magic. Had felt it when it took root."Saint," I said again. The man slept like a rock at the bottom of a spring. "Mgmgs," he mumbled.Forcing our arm to move, I slapped our face. He shot up, his teeth bared. "Who's there?" he called out. "It's me, you buffoon," I said.Our head cocked to the side. "Ten? Why are you waking me up? Can't whatever it is wait until morning?" He snuggled back down into the comfortable bed in our new home. "No." I shook our head so he would fully wake up. "Wake up!"He sat up, pulling the blankets with him. "I'm awake. What can't wait until the morning, Ten?""Kiema is pregnant.""WHAT THE FUCK!?"I snickered as everyone in the room burst from the bed, fists and knives raised in defense. "What is it?" Ransom's head turned back and forth quickly, visually sweeping the room. With a grunt at its emp

    Two weeks later"Are we finally going to try this? We've been prepping for what feels like forever." I licked my way up Saint's neck. He shivered as his fingers curled into the flesh of my ass. "Maybe we should wait one more day. I don't want to hurt you."I rolled my eyes under the cover of my closed lids. This man. So dominant. So caring. So sure I wasn't ready to take one of them in my ass. I guess I'll just have to show him that I was more than ready.I slid down his body. A wave of magic and all of us were naked as the day we were born. As I sucked his cock into my mouth, Kord came up behind me.Curling around my back, he pinched my nipples with one hand. With his other, he slid a hand down my belly and straight over my clit. With a sharp movement, his fingers were deep inside me. I groaned around Saint's dick as waves of pleasure washed over me. Sprinkled with the counterpoints of pain from Kord getting my nipples ready for the clover clamps. I felt my core cream at

    The next day"Torture and then straight back to bed. I don't care that your father is the god of healing. This is ridiculous, Kiema," Atlas said as we stood in the elevator on our way to the basement level."Don't get trapped in the dungeons," Apollo had said as he laid his palm against the electronic plate on the wall of the elevator.Right. Dungeons in a god hospital. Gods were freaking weird.I patted his cheek. "I've got my main medical provider right next to me. I'll be fine. Besides I feel like a million bucks."He huffed a laugh as Mason and Lukas came up beside him. I wiggled my eyebrows at Atlas, looked over his shoulder, back to his face.He chuckled and rolled his eyes. "Yes, little sister. We've decided to try being a thruple."I wrinkled my nose. "What kind of word is thruple?""A three-person couple, luv," Lukas answered. I snorted. "And you guys won't let me make up words? That's a heaping load of Berserker shit right there."We were all laughi

    I pushed the other two through the doors. I wasn't waiting another minute to see my girl. I'd felt her die. Felt my spirit try to follow her down that long tunnel. My heart had stopped beating when I saw Heppni literally rip her heart from her chest and crush it. But here we were. Alive. Healing. She was pale against the bright white sheets of the hospital bed. Although it was unlike any hospital I'd ever been in. Apollo said something about it being a place for gods and goddesses. I shook my head. It didn't matter to me what it was as long as it made her better. She looked over as we rushed in. Her eyes searched each one of us before returning to me. Tears flooded her eyes as I pulled her into my arms. We all sat on the bed, curled and huddled together while she got it all out. The guys and I had had some truly brutal boxing matches to deal with our own emotions. I was still achy and sore from a couple of well-placed hits from Kord. The man might be a nerdy librarian, b

    My chest hurt. I tried to rub it, but my arms were restrained. "Easy there, bubbles. You'll pull your stitches if you do that," a man said. His voice was soft and melodious. Like listening to angels sing. Angels. Something about that word tickled my brain.Angel. Almost. Almost.Ransom. As soon as I thought his name, his face popped into my brain. I tried to sit up. Made it a couple inches before I was pushed back to the bed beneath me. I opened my eyes. Ignoring the stabbing pain that slid into my eyeballs, I blinked to clear my vision. A bright white room greeted me. The only color in it was the man who had a hand against my chest. I looked down at his hand. Looked up at his face. Raised an eyebrow. "Get the fuck off, perv. My mates will rip you to shreds."He huffed a laugh and removed his hand. "I doubt your mates will be doing much more than breathing for a couple more hours, but I'm glad to see that you're back, bubbles. Have a nice nap?" I leaned ba

    Everyone Hellion had made me vow to keep alive fell to the ground as if they were puppets and their strings had been cut. Fuck, fuck, fuck. I hurried to the closest one's side. Pushed two fingers to his neck. Gone. I was so fucking dead. I blasted an oncoming human with a burst of magic. He withered where he stood. I sank to my knees next to the small woman with bright white hair. She was gone as well. The woman with the long brown hair threw her blade into an approaching Direct. It sliced through him like he was air. With wild eyes, she didn't even try to gather the particles of his passing. She pushed me aside as she cradled the smaller woman to her chest. "No no no not my baby no no no please no no," she wailed. Her agonized scream was muffled against the smaller woman's head.The rest of the humans who had interrupted our plans were either dead or falling back the way they'd come. Movement drew my eye. I squinted as I tracked it across the street. It wa

    I sent another stream of fiery magic at the Direct who thought to protect my mother. Some pansy-assed gifted asshole wasn't going to stop me from hunting my mother down and killing her. With a wave of my hand, a path cleared. With a curl of my fist, humans fell to the ground, their spines crumbled into dust. "I'm coming for you, Herpes," I screamed at the top of my lungs. She scurried away, down the side street towards the fighting arena I'd created for us to use for practice. I picked up my pace and followed her. "You better be fucking careful, honey," Saint said through my head. He was working with Arasne and Felix at the opening of the street where the humans were still grouped. The Faeries had set up a blockade of sorts, forcing the humans into a bottleneck situation. They were taken down one by one as Ransom had his horde of beasts funneled them through the line of magical warriors. "Always, Saint baby. See you in a bit." I rushed down the street Herpes had
